Roy was born in Wyandotte County, Ks to Melval and Margaret Miller on January 2, 1941.

A former Marine, Roy served in law enforcement in Johnson County, Ks for 32 years and retired as the Chief of Police of Fairway, Ks. He was known and loved as a coach and mentor to his children, grandchildren, and countless others as he had advice, wisdom, and life lessons to pass along to those who knew him. Often times this was done in his office (garage) over a Bud light.

He is survived by his wife Donna (née Miller); daughters, Melanie (Mike) Miller-Williamson, Deanna (John) Parker, and Kerri (Ernest) Truitt; son, Mike (Melinda) Miller; sisters, Missy (Bob) Luckinbill and Patty Miller; brother, Mike (Cheryl) Miller; 13 grandchildren; and 10 great-grandchildren And many nieces and nephews. Roy’s greatest source of pride was this large family he and Donna built. Family whom he loved endlessly and served with complete selflessness.
